This. Just keep shooting 'em out there and cross your fingers. Possibly work a SPS service industry job if you need some cash in the meantime.

It sounds like finding a job in Law is impossible, and if that's what you're trying to find a job in, I'm sorry brother.

Out of school it took me ~300 apps (not in law, though) to land my first position. I got an interview about every ~40-50 submissions, and never got any interest if I was applying out of state.

Make sure you are putting a lot the keywords of the job poasting in your resume and on the application (esp. if its a Brassring or Taleo submission).

It's tough out there, and when you finally do land a position, you're going really wonder why you were locked out of the working world. Three weeks into employment, you'll be whizzing through tasks, lapping your co-workers (incompetent shitboomers and "best of both worlds, yeah whatever, man, we don't complain" shit-x'ers) as if you were James Hunt in 1976.

Keep up the fight. When you do finally reach the summit, you'll look around and see the inefficiency around you. Just imagine if they were all efficient wizard Millennials like yourself, 30% of the workforce would be gone, and you wouldn't have this job.

Godspeed

probably should have applied to other stuff as well to avoid being pwned. it worked out for you but you might have been in real trouble.

okay bros, some updates

-- got 3 interview invites, 1 for a 2nd tier management consulting company, 1 for a super small mba entrepreneurs "creative" marketing consultancy, 1 for managing an outdoor companys events

i ignored the marketing consultanting company (sorta regret it now, tbf the ceo was an m7 alum but the place reeked of TTT), and also ignored the outdoor company (im not athletic at all atm)

i interviewed with the MC and my anxiety is through the fucking ROOF no idea how i did interviewer was really non chalant from the start

fuckfuckfuckfuck

also the book rasqie talked about seems 180000

today i applied their "networking" method, next week hopefully something pans out from it/i hear back from the MC firm

really really regret ignoring the marketing firm, but then again, i would just start another job search while there and end up fucking them over so w/e

its really complicated but tbh for an analytic guy like me its the best networking guide i have found. its also just 1 part of the book. author seems like a really experienced/intelligent guy, and is career dude @ duka MBA.

basically it goes:

1. find alums @ firms you are targetting (it has a method for creating a list for firms). if no alums it gives other methods.

2. send email using template (guy says its a 40% hit rate)

3. do phone interviews (teaches u really great methods for them)

4. get them to internally submit ur resume

5. get interview (book stops short of interview + beyond)

is it too complicated to explain on here? The only thing I can imagine is that you write a thank you to the person and include the resume if they think it can be submitted anywhere, but no pressure on their part

I'm 1300 apps in and I've gotten 2 legit offers that weren't embarrassing opportunities. Sucks out there.

One piece of advice: if they use Taleo and those ridiculous online portals, just ignore. They're giant wastes of time. 25% of the time you fill it out and then it won't send or freeze and you've wasted an hour.

i gave up on them too like 15 apps in but TBH the 1 legit firm i have had so far the management consulting place i used their online app. i think its useful if its a highly sought after position, like they are doing some mega hiring, AND you are a little bit overqualified.

im skipping all online apps now though and going to do find alums->email->phone->resume internally

I have 2 phone conversations set up, 3 more in the pipeline that I am waiting on an email back to confirm time/date. the other response was by a dude that just copy pasted some generic response and told me to basically read the website and msg recruiter.

blasting resumes online can be a good strategy assuming you're qualified for the job and tailor your resume/cover letter, but it's time consuming. easier to talk to friends/alums. alums tend to be very receptive in linkedin.

Dude, relax. Do what I did. Wait tables for a year or so and do a couple DUIs for your server bros until you get fired for coming in reeking of stale beer. Then find a lawyer to give you a work-for-rent deal and hang your own shingle. After five years of this, join a firm when you realize you have no idea you are doing. They will lay you off, but after a year on UI you will find a firm that will hire you. Three years later and you'll be making $65k when the bulk of your student loans come due. HTH.

very receptive. i have >40% response rate.

they vary but i would say like 75% have led to an interview thus far. 1 was a generic see the website response. 1 was a sry we only go through on campus recruiting. but another 1 was straight up invite for recruitment session over the phone. BTW none of these people have even seen my resume. and i don't really have a web presence. my linkedin is like barely filled.

btw these aren't mom and pop firms, but top 10 firms in their field.

i literally just started this a couple days ago and shit is already blowing up.

i can basically "see the matrix" now of the "hidden job market" and all that bullshit networking fluff for realz now.

edit: lol just got another email to set up an interview with a top 10 firm. the guy is also super high level, like literally retiring soon.

news at 11: it's easy to get people to talk to you, hard to turn that into them actually do something for you beyond talking to you.

according to the book, it's not that hard to leverage the informational in to an interview

and from their reactions it seems pretty easy, i just am too timid

it's just like pua imo

yeah except these people are forwarding me contacts of other people in the firm, giving me advice on which offices are hiring, recommending me to apply to their firm, etc.

bro it's fine. it's just the majority of this shit will turn into nothing and your earlier posts made it sound like you had discovered some super easy way to get hired into a quality jerb. the resume you send this guy he may or may not forward to the recruiting department, which will just put it in a stack with everyone else.

im not trying to sell you anything bro. i think it's good you are developing a network. just sounds like you are going overboard with how effective you think the short term results will be.

you're a hater

short term - 2 months max

results - 2-3 interviews, 2-3 hot leads i did not pursue for an interview, 2-3 chances for developing hot leads

this isn't going overboard at all. i was just venting on the board. there hasn't been any set backs, just need to take some 5-htp and go for a run or something.

btw have a resume/cover letter screen follow up call with an alum at a top 3 firm in a couple hours.

book said go for the most senior guy, so I'm talking to some pretty high level guys. the difference in quality between them and some b-school/ug shit head is huge, and it's convinced me that I can "make it" seeing where I stack up relative to people in the field.
